Gene name

B4GALNT2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

Cad, GALGT2, Sda

Description

Beta-1,4-N-acetyl-galactosaminyl transferase 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

B4GALNT2 catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the human Sd(a) antigen through the addition of an N-acetylgalactosamine residue via a beta-1,4 linkage to a subterminal galactose residue substituted with an alpha-2,3-linked sialic acid. B4GALNT2 also catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the Cad antigen (Montiel et al., 2003 [PubMed 12678917]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
